Faculty & Friends of the Collective
Meet the leaders and professors who run programs and teach courses related to Buddhism at Union Theological Seminary.
We are immensely grateful to be learning from a gathering of remarkable practitioners and scholars with a wide range of specialties, and representing diverse lineages of Buddhism and beyond. These are faculty members and administrators of Union Theological Seminary, and not of our Collective. We are delighted to celebrate them here, as they play a particular role in create a thriving intellectual and spiritual context for Buddhists at the seminary.
